Hemp lotion absorption under the microscope: new study launches

NCT ID NCT07603518

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-stage study will test how a hemp-based CBD lotion with a small amount of THC is absorbed by the body. Twenty healthy adults will use the lotion in a clean, controlled environment. Researchers will measure cannabinoid levels in saliva, blood, and urine over time to understand how the body processes these compounds when applied to the skin.
